Mike, what you describe sure sounds like a Cinch-Jones connector.  They are
available from Newark and perhaps Mouser or Digi-Key.

The later four-pin Nylon Molex connector and cable is still available from
Ten-Tec.  I recently purchased the complete assembly for my Triton IV and
use it with an Astron switching supply.
